I've been working on a implementation of the Directory library lately, and I hit a wall of sorts when it came to dealing with exceptions. The functions in the Directory library (being IO operations) are expected to raise exceptions, but I can't figure out how to do that. userError doesn't raise anything other than UserErrors, and other than that I haven't seen a way to raise exceptions yet. Is there a way to do that? I realize that IOError is an abstract type, but there must be a way to use it effectively, right? -- -Simon Raahauge DeSantis
